        They will probably do very well.  Girls do better than boys in
math until middle school.  They are better behaved, and need less
remedial services.  Therefore, they should be more likely to suceed in a
homogenious classroom.  Once they have these skills, their self -
confidence and maturity should allow them to suceed very nicely in
school.  To answer your question, statistically, their should be either
a positive or no significance.
 
Keep your stick on the Ice,
